Reporting a Vulnerability

Please do not report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.

If you believe you have found a security vulnerability in lemric/batch-request, report it privately using one of the following channels:

  1. GitHub Security Advisories (preferred): Report a vulnerability
  2. Email: dominik@labudzinski.com with the subject line [SECURITY] lemric/batch-request

Please include as much of the following information as possible:

  • Type of issue (e.g. SSRF, path traversal, header injection, privilege escalation, information disclosure)
  • Full paths of source file(s) related to the manifestation of the issue
  • The location of the affected source code (tag / branch / commit or direct URL)
  • Any special configuration required to reproduce the issue
  • Step-by-step instructions to reproduce the issue
  • Proof-of-concept or exploit code (if possible)
  • Impact of the issue, including how an attacker might exploit it

This information helps us triage the report more quickly.

Response Process

  • You will receive an acknowledgement within 72 hours.
  • We will confirm the issue, determine affected versions and prepare a fix.
  • A coordinated disclosure date will be agreed with you when possible.
  • A security advisory will be published on GitHub once a fixed release is available (and optionally on Packagist via Composer advisory metadata).

Please give us a reasonable amount of time to publish a fix before any public disclosure.

Scope

In scope:

  • Path traversal / SSRF via relative_url
  • HTTP response splitting / header injection
  • Recursive batch amplification
  • Information disclosure through error messages or logs
  • Unsafe forwarding of authentication or proxy headers
  • Denial-of-service vectors specific to this library (e.g. payload / batch size bombs that bypass documented limits)

Out of scope (report to the application / framework instead):

  • Misconfiguration of routes, firewalls or rate limiters in the host application
  • Vulnerabilities in Symfony, Laravel or other third-party dependencies (report upstream)
  • Issues that require an already-compromised application server

Security Hardening Already Present

This library applies several defences by default. See docs/security.md for the full model. In short:

  • Relative URIs only (no absolute / protocol-relative URLs)
  • Path-traversal and CRLF detection with multi-decode defence
  • Strict HTTP method allow-list
  • Sensitive parent headers never forwarded to sub-requests
  • Recursive batch requests rejected via IS_INTERNAL
  • Payload and per-transaction body size limits
  • Client-facing execution errors sanitised; secrets redacted from logs

Preferential Treatment

We appreciate responsible disclosure. Credit will be given in the advisory (unless you prefer to remain anonymous).

There aren't any published security advisories
